I'd never heard of these little beauties until a few years ago.
A friend offered me the bulbs, declaring they provide attractive green leaves in the early summer but never bloom.
Lucky for me she is one of those neat freaks and doesn't glance into her garden once August is done.
Because in September these little beauties, officially named Colchicums, spring up looking like a bunch of giant crocus.
There are no sheltering leaves, hence the name naked ladies.
Bloom on, ladies.
